I really don't get a lot of the rationale behind Lemmy. Love the gist, but damn, even basic access and recall are a nightmare.

  • What community for what instance?
  • Why aren't permalinks for comments and posts associated, under the community and instance to which they reside, by that reference?
  • Why don't post links have a slug?

It's a nice start. Maybe it'll be fully fleshed out one day.

Lemmy isn't really using federation, except to share user credentials. All content and attention remain centralized
